Greg Walker is a successful entrepreneur and motivational speaker who owns three franchises. He was born and raised on the south side of Columbus, Ohio, where he grew up in an environment filled with drugs, alcohol and violence. One of 15 children, Greg was told over and over he didn’t stand a chance. He was teased, called a slow learner and was surrounded by failure. On his first day of high school, he was told to drop out. But Greg had a dream. While people were trying to pull him down, Greg kept at it. Greg’s dream didn’t include being a failure and quitting was not an option. He did the grind and he hustled to become the business person he is today. He now travels the world speaking on motivation, personal development and leadership. Greg has become hugely successful as a speaker with his down-to-earth, open and engaging personality. As an expert on leadership and success, he is known for his bursts of excitement and radiates dynamic and inspiring messages that resonate with people from all walks of life.
